Huckabee Buzz

-

It's tough to be a Republican Presidential candidate right now. With Trump sucking all the air out of the room it's hard for the others to get media coverage.

So what to do? Say inflammatory things and bad mouth the President, it's sure fire. Mike Huckabee says the President of our country is leading the Israelis to the ovens, a direct reference to the Holocaust.This is the chance to once again equate Barack Obama with Hitler, which was all the rage during the Affordable Care Act debate, you remember the death panels?

Naturally  Huckabee maintains he's speaking of the Iranian Goverments routine declarations of unleashing a Holocaust on Israel. He opposes the current Iran Nuclear Deal and that's fine. He could have taken the high road and explained his opposition and laid out his alternative for the path forward, but that wouldn't get him attention.

So he chose the low road and not for the first time. The Reverend Governor Fox Commentator is a nasty demagogue showing his true colors. He has a long history of narrow minded expressions that go way back before the first time he ever ran for President.

Bluster and blow, a good name for his next Fox News show.

His effort to get some coverage did work, he's received a commentary here in the journal of record in my house. Congrats Mike.

Sacrifice

After a lengthy absence from live performance I found my self wedged in a seat at Theater on the Square in Indianapolis. The production was "Sacrifice" , an original and first play from co-writers Marcus May and Caleb Nunez. Both have experience in short films and a life long love of the arts. The play is about racial tension between two families, one black and one Latino. Leading the Latino family is Ernesto, a building super who's wife was killed many years earlier by a young black male. Ernesto, engagingly played by Joe Vanegas, cannot let go of this life altering experience and as a result has a distrust of African Americans and a prejudice born of pain. His daughter Ana, played by Brittany Crone, views the world through a different lens, one of tolerance and acceptance of diversity. She tries to soften her father's views but to no avail. Enter the new tenants in the building, the black family father and son Antonio and Trey. When Trey meets Ana sparks begin

The Day After

Well, how you doing today. Feeling nauseous? Feeling giddy with joy? Feeling like the Republic is now under the control of a Sith Lord? Feeling like the saviour of the nation has arrived? I guess it all depends on where you stand. I said in this little forum from the very beginning that Donald Trump could get the Republican nomination and go on to win the Presidency. I was hopeful that he wouldn't but never delusional that he couldn't. Forget about the polls which got it wrong and forget about the professional pundits who got it wrong and are still getting it wrong in their analysis. Trump won in the Electoral College because of rural America turning out in large numbers. As I write this Hillary Clinton still has over 200,000 more votes than Donald Trump and that number will likely grow by the time the count is complete. The irony is that the same people who voted for Donald Trump are the ones who rail against the Electoral College. Let me repeat again that millions of Amer
